Cardiologic

I saw my Cardiologist yesterday and all is well with me...as far as my heart goes. I asked him about the Shingles and if I should be getting more anti-viral pills to combat it. He said the virus is gone and what I am dealing with now is the damaged, inflamed nerve. So Suck it Up and Quit the Damn Complainin'!

After I saw the Doctor they took me to another room to check on the status of my Defibrillator. The battery is good for nine more years. They showed me an event I had on August 16th where the Defib detected an increasing heart rate, and paced my heart back to normal. Had I not had the unit, that might have led to a heart stoppage event which would have created a funeral event and a nice party event afterwards. Unfortunately, I would have been unable to attend the party even though it was in my honor.

Before yesterday, I have been questioning whether the Defibrillator was something I really needed or if Dr. Kadel just needed a Jaguar payment. Turns out I needed it.
